UNCRATING THE HEATER:

To remove the shipping carton from the heater:
1. Remove the corrugated carton from the
heater. The carton, top pad, bottom pad,
and the four corner posts can be recycled.
2. There are three (3) screws total used to
secure the heater to the wood pallet. All
three must be removed to separate the
heater from the pallet. One (1) is located
in the lower rear of the heater as shown in

3. To access the other two (2) screws, open
the front access panel by remov-
ing the black phillips-head screw.
Then remove the two (2) screws
which hold the heater base pan to
the pallet as shown in Figure 2.
4. Lift the heater clear of the corrugat-
ed bottom pad and off of the pallet.
ATTENTION: Do not drop the
heater from a pickup truck tailgate
to the ground. This may damage the
heater.

LOCATING THE HEATER:

Locate the pool/spa/hot tub heater in an area where leakage of the heat exchanger or connections will not
result in damage to the area adjacent to the heater or to the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided,
it is recommended that a suitable drain pan, with drain outlet, be installed under the heater. The pan must not
restrict airfl ow.
This heater must be installed at least (5) feet from the inside wall of a pool (in-ground or above-ground)/
spa/hot tub unless separated from the pool/spa/hot tub by a solid barrier.
The heater must be installed such that the location of the exhaust gas vent assembly outlet relative to
adjacent public walkways, adjacent buildings, openable windows, and building openings complies with the
National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54) and/or CAN/CGA B149 installation codes. Outdoor instal-
lation and service clearances:
The heater must be installed outdoors such that the installation and service clearances from combustible
materials shown in Table 2 are maintained. This heater may be installed on combustible fl oors.
1. The heater is self-venting when installed outdoors and does not require additional vent piping.
2. Do not install in a location where growing shrubs may in time obstruct a heater's combustion air and
venting areas.
3. Do not install this appliance under an overhang less than (3) feet from the top of the appliance. The
area under the overhang must be open on (3) sides.
4. Do not install the heater where water spray from ground sprinkler can contact the heater. The water
could splash on the controls causing electrical damage.
